Just a few shots i snapped off friday after work.
in order:
clouds on the road from work
flowers outside a local resturant
and the last one is a vine growing on the stay cable on the telephone pole outside my house.

Electricity!
Huzza! i have the electricitys again!
long story real short, the electric company failed to be awsome, and didn't create our acount when they told us they did, and then they turned off the power. for a week.
its back on now.
this is much better.

Aviation Day
Today was aviation day.
yesturday, i got myself a 20$ radio control airplane, but it was to windy to get any good flights (i nearly lost it into the college football field). but today, i woke up at 8:30 (sleeping in for the win) looked out my window, and saw sad sad trees, with leaves all a droop, not the slightest shiver of wind.
thusly, i bounded out of bed, got dressed, charged the plane, and bolted for the athletic track and practice field. (thus being the only place big enough to fly)
while i was driving, i was thrilled to see about half a dozen hot air balloons in the air over town!
yes, i had forgotten that today was part 2 of the big bend balloon bash! I've lived here for nigh on 6 years, and had never seen it, as i usualy sleep through there flight windows. but this year, as i work for a living now, and cant sleep past 9, i got to see them.
one looked like it was going to land on the practice field, and got so close i could hear the people talking in the gondola, but the breeze shifted aparently at there altitude (no wind i could feel on the ground) and they changed course and ended up running the burner to get higher.
i also had great luck with my plane, and had some good long flights. As it is a cheep plane, its sorta bork, and won't turn right for beans, so i'm stuck with large left handed circles, but its still a lot of fun. i'm going to have to get a better plane.
aviation day rocks.
